Anvil International Inc 8700154050 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700154050 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1-1/2 inches by 2-1/2 inches. Pipe nipples are short sections of externally threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, and other components in a piping system. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suited to water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install these as standard components in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and commercial piping systems where a short threaded connection is needed between two female-threaded fittings or valves. Common applications include water supply lines, fire protection systems, compressed air distribution, and low-pressure gas piping. The 1-1/2-inch nominal pipe size and 2-1/2-inch body length make it a close nipple suitable for tight-clearance installations where a longer run is not required.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• 1-1/2-inch nominal pipe size with 2-1/2-inch overall length
• External threads on both ends for standard female-threaded fitting connections
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units per package

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread galvanized pipe nipple for use with 1-1/2-inch female NPT fittings, valves, and couplings in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code requirements. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe-joint compound rated for the intended service before making up threaded connections. Shut off and depressurize the system and isolate all relevant sections before installing or removing any threaded fittings. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or strip threads.
